El-Rufai will lead Nigeria into an avoidable religious crisis -Shi’ites

The Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) otherwise known as Shi’ites has rejected a White Paper by the Kaduna State government on the 2015 clash between the sect and the army in Zaria.

The Kaduna State government had established a Judicial Commission of Inquiry headed by Justice Mohammed Garba to investigate the clash which left 347 shi’ites dead.

The White Paper released by the commission had justified the killings and labelled the sect as an “insurgent group”.

But in a press conference on Thursday, Sheikh Abdulhamid Bello of the Shuhada Foundation, who spoke on behalf of the sect rejected the White Paper.

He said the submission has shown that governor Nasir Ek-Rufai does not want peace in the state.

He noted that El-Rufai would “lead Kaduna State and Nigeria into an avoidable religious crisis and conflict.”

He added, “it is clear to us the governor of Kaduna State is a threat to national security and the peace and stability of Kaduna State and Nigeria.

“We are convinced that the governor of Kaduna State is bent on creating an atmosphere of fear, anxiety and violence in Kaduna State for reasons that are unclear through his approach to governance.”
